Hello Mr. Schmidt!

NO, there is NO gcc for the Cray! The main problem is the lack of code
for the vectorization of the programms. Because Cray would never give
GNU the sources for analysation of the data dependencies and code
conversion, there will never be such a compiler. The production of
scalar code (like the Convex version) will be possible, but that would
be absurd, because it is a waste of computer power on vector
computers.

Use the scc on the Cray, please. This is a good compiler with a lot of
useful extensions. With the new gcc 2.5.x it is possible now to do the
complete development on your local workstation with the gcc and do the
production on the Cray with the scc compiler.

I will release in January for Konrad-Zuse-Zentrum (ZIB) users a .h
file and some instructions for gcc users, that will make development
and porting for the scc simpler. Is there any need for this outside of
Berlin?

						Frohe Weihnachten!
